How to disable dark mode

I'm using a Mac, how do I disable dark mode?

    Hi Em24! Thanks for posting here.

     

    If you’re referring to dark mode on the Dropbox website, please note that this changes based on your OS settings. So, I’d suggest making sure that your macOS settings aren’t set to dark mode, but light mode instead. 

     

    The same thing applies if you're using the desktop app.

     

    Hope this helps.

      Previously I have my OS settings on Dark but the Dropbox website did not come up all black. This is something new and rather annoying. I don't want everything in light mode. No other website appears like this. I believe it is more of an issue with the website design than with settings.
